Philplop Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 I let out anyone but only one car at a time usually.I always use the lane that closes ahead. Surely if there's two lanes, you should use them for as long as possible, thus preventing the tailbacks from being so long and possibly blocking off roundabouts and junctions further up the road (which I see every day on my way to Uni). People that block off the outside lane piss me off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picola Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 I let anyone out, dependant on my mood and the situation. I don't see why I should let certain cars out and not others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then i would think it often happenes when people do that and get to the road block and no one lets them in. When im in that situation i usually go down the outside until i can see the end of that lane then get over, not leaving it to the end to try and barge in. Then I would be one of those poeple not letting you in im afraid I nearly got reversed into by a transit van, with a huge step on the back of it, by doing that though, i was just keeping close to the car infront of me, in a line which i had been sat in, slowly creeping forward for about half an hour. Then someone just trys to barge in nearly taking off my front wing. SO i held my hand on the embarrassment of a horn, but he was so close i had to let him infront, so since i did that he put it into reverse and flew backwards at me, so i just didnt do anything. Although i nearly reported him to the police i was so furious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picola Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 It annoys me when people on the left lane of a round about forget about the right lane, or maybe its just a lupo thing. So small they canny see you.But I get cut up alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_273 Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 i refuse to let cars out that dont indicate or the ones that just try and barge out cause i drive a small car . also people who clearly know the road narrows up ahead into 1 lane and they try and come up in the lane that dissapears , if somebody does that i close the gap right up to the car infront so they cant get in.I usually let people out, but never if they are trying to just push in. Can't stand people just barging in, and using the wrong lane and cutting me up on roundabouts . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDGM Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 Bloody hell, all this "I don't like BMWs" is getting a bit repetitive. The car isn't the problem, it's the driver. The BMW and Audi A4 have replaced the Vectra and Mondeo in the company carpark for one reason - at disposal time, the company gets a lot more back for a small increase in outlay at the time of purchase. The 'added value' part is that the employee (a shiny suit wearing knob sucker who should have set off 10 minutes ago) feels like he's got some kind of promotion because he's in a premium brand.Mondeo Man has become Beemer Bummer Boy and ruins it for everyone. Haven't all you moaning gits got a car version of Little Man Syndrome? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 well said that man - manners don't cost anythign and improve everyone's day. If you were on foot you wouldn't spped up yoru walking pace to cut someone up so just pause for a couple of seconds to let someone out, you can always overtake them again if you're in a hurry and what's it cost you, 10ft of road space you coudl have been closer to yoru direction.

Swoxy Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 (edited) http://www.iam.org.uk/pressroom/newsarchiv...tember+2007.htmJust released from the Institute of Advanced Motorists and now in the latest Highway Code published on 28th September.“Too often we see a long, empty lane leading up to roadworks, doing nothing, because drivers have been told to get in lane too early. Then there is a tension with people perceived as ‘pushing in’. The new recommendation to merge in turn in the Highway Code will encourage drivers to use all the available lanes – right up to the lane closure - and could make roadworks less of a problem,” he said.“It will avoid frustration and mean everybody gets through the restriction that much quicker.” Edited October 1, 2007 by Swoxy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver!
